City of Cedar Springs

Business-to-Business Group

Business-to-Business participants discussing the Christmas Open House

In the absence of a Chamber of Commerce, local business owners have banded together to support each other in these challenging economic times.  This informal group gathers quarterly at various businesses throughout the community (check the calendar feature for exact locations).  Topics of discussion include holiday promotions, marketing strategies and happenings at City Hall.

The Business-to-Business (B2B) group is free to join, just email your information to Kelley Worth and you will be included in all communications.  Just recently, a check scam was relayed by the Police Chief to all participants in a matter of minutes (via email), the suspect was apprehended quickly and restitution made to the affected business owners.  Business owners are asked to attend two meetings per year.  This enables the group to keep its email list and group updated with business owners that are currently interested in the Cedar Springs Business District and  allows them to have first-hand, accurate information about what is happening in Cedar Springs.

If you wish to join the B2B email list, please be assured that your name or email address is not given or sold to anybody.  Many vendors inquire and are repeatedly told ‘no’.  The only information you will receive is from Kelley Worth in the form of a weekly newsletter or meeting updates.
